SnoSki14 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 1998 was an equal opportunity downer for everyone with a warm winter and cool summer. The winter snow and cold lovers lost out followed by the summer heat fans.The Labor Day Derecho was the one interesting event that year so the severe storm crew was happy. You get what mother nature throws at you though I would trade a lot of winter to see another 98 derecho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluewave Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 You get what mother nature throws at you though I would trade a lot of winter to see another 98 derecho. We pretty much traded winter from 97-99 for that derecho and the memorable summer 99 heat followed by Floyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 almost all of my non wx friends are complaining. they also get mad at me when i tell them it's going to snow. i think a bunch of you beef up the cold bias here because you can't IRL Well, obviously. Isn't that true of most things said here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthShoreWx Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 you have to be obese to enjoy this garbage The cool weather is much better for outdoor exercise. Heat only doesn't matter to people who sit on the couch in air conditioning most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Hit 90 again today, the humidity wasn't terrible (upper 60s to around 70 DP), so the HI made it to maybe 95. Good amount of clouds around too-Hurricanes Blanca and the remnants of Andres should bring at least high level moisture to this part of the state and jack up humidity. If all this water wasn't in the ground, we'd likely be pushing 95 for highs if not 100. Low 90s expected here every day this week, but the mid part of the month looks like opportunities for T-storms will come back. I'll probably return to this part of the thread in August when I regularly hit 100+ and LOL. The heat also feels worse down here due to the sun being 10 deg higher in the sky. You feel it right away when you're outside at midday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isotherm Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 We have yet to hit the solstice, so a countdown is very meh. I don't even allow thoughts of winter to enter my mind until the second half of August at the earliest. The weather's just finally getting nice/warm on a more regular basis.

jm1220 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Austin-Bergstrom Airport finally hit 90 today, first this year (I think). A whole bunch of 87-89 highs though. Dallas and Houston are ahead of us by a few so far, surprising since we average a couple of degrees higher than DFW and IAH at least-in August our highest average high is 98 while theirs is maybe 95. I'll say, the heat is a lot less disgusting here than it was when I had to trudge through Midtown in the humid, smog/exhaust laden crap at my last job. I'd practically kiss the ground when I got home to Long Beach and walked into a clean, seabreeze-cooled atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juliancolton Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Man ... I got 74 over 43 here, with cobalt blue skies picturesquely festooned with mare's tails. There are these gossamer ploof balls of cotton like substance adrift in their defiance of gravity. Breezes pushes leaves back and forth like trees waving a friendly hello, welcome to the party ...

dmillz25 Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share Posted June 8, 2015 I hate that marine air kills strong thunderstorms headed to the coast. We always need a perfect setup to get to the coast. The HV today has a good chance for severe weather while we'll probably get just rain and thunder and lightning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isotherm Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Tom, I was wondering, why are you so interested in the weather? You never leave the house... I've always wondered why weather is so interested in me. What about you? You wanted a relationship with someone who could never tick you off?
